We slathered on sunscreen got a hat (I bought Will's hat a yardsale for $1) and off we went to walk around our mountain - you know the one I made a block of.
When I wasn't looking Will put together a gun to take along - boys will be boys!
First interesting plant we spotted was our neighbors euphorbia on their hillside in glorious(though tiny)bloom.
We were on the lookout for bougenvilla(sp?) planting as Will's family just bought one and want to know how people use them. Here's two we found:
Mom and Dad will find those interesting. Then on the way home I spotted this Northfolk Island Pine.
This was our first Christmas tree 43 years ago. After Christmas my husband sold it to a neighbor who planted it in her side yard. It has grown a bit from the 4 foot tree it was. Lastly, as we came back to where we started, Will asked about the plant below. I told him Grandpa had put the last two year's pointsettias in a pot a month ago. They seem to like the spot.
